resident Roosevelt is quoted as
against attacks on stocks and bonds,
In his Indianapolis speech. Quite
likely and quite proper. There Is
neither wisdom or justice in making
an attack on any form of legitimate
securities. The attack should be
made not on the securities but on
those who issue them. And all such
attacks should be made in a maimer
that will protect the securities and
the holders of tlum a' d at the sun.1
time compel those who issue them to
do right with the public that is buy
ing.. A general attack on securities
would more severely injure the small
holder than the one behind them, for
If the latter's securities are deprec
iated he can recoup himself In saving
by large purchases of the depreciated
stocks, while the smal I older stani
to loose with no opportunity to make
himself safe. Further, no good can
come from a dishonest at'a.k on rich
or poor; the man who has Issued the
securities, even if lie has overdone the
matter, has his rights as well as the
buyer. If he has committed wrong
tlere are ether wavj to punish him
besides the drastic one of destroying
bis securities.
Every possible effort Is being put
forth by the enemies of President
Roosevelt to discredit hira with the
people. Whoever has a grudge and
whatever the occasion enemies of the
President stir them up to write him
or in some other way attack him or
bis life. The Harrlmans and men of
that character are determined to con
vince the public that they are not
grasping and greedy, as the Presi
dent has said, and they wish to raise
as many and as prominent controver
sies with the President as posible
that In the end the people will tire
at the magnitude of the uproar and
Join them In destroying the President
personally and the annullment of his
influence with the voters all over our
land i
A wholesale reduction in the num
ber of employes on railways all over
the country Is announced, the excuse
given being retrenchment made nec
essary by the two-cent fare laws. Per
haps this Is but another way to make
the public be good. There are many
Instances In which reductions In fare
can be safely made, and the country
is satisfied of that fact. But no sane
man can wish to see rates of fare
reduced below what Is Just to the
railways. Both parties to the contro
versy have rights, and It Is Just as
unwise to do wrong to a corporation
as to an individual, and vice versa.
The old wheelhorses of the Demo
cratic party who do not like William
Jennings Bryan are trying to defeat
his nomination for President next
year by entering In the race "favorite
sons' In a dozen or more states. But
Mr. Bryan has taken the wind out of
their sails by advising his friends to
encourage such movements, always
picking as he advises on men who
have made reputations by standing
for the proper guarding of public
utilities.
We read a considerable these days
of "Cannon and duty." Is It "Cannon
and duty" or Cannon and politics
Mr. Cannon has been recognized as
a part of the political machine, and
hf has beenvioted as quietly In op
position to President Roosevelt, who
has the hatred of the entire machine.
Now the question arises, Is Cannon a
convert to a new light, or simply
coming In out of the rain?
The attendance at the thirty-fourth
annual meeting of the State Grange
at Hood River Is among the largest
ever recorded. Representatives from
this county are reported as follows:
Henry Hoffmelster, T L. Turner, Mrs.
N. E. Turner, William Beard, Mrs.
Louise Beard, L. D. Jones, Mrs. Em
ma Jones, Mrs. H. L. Anderson, H. S.
Anderson.
The State Senate of Michigan. Mon
day night passed a resolution, unani
mously, demanding that President
Roosevelt be given a second elective
term as Chief Magistrate. The wind
seems to be blowing Rooseveltward,
and It Is the common people who are
In the fore rank in making these de
mands. The news from Washington Is to
the effect that Speaker Cannon has
seen a new light In the tariff revision
matter and will be in line for any
thing reasonable. As Cannon was one
of the original "stand-patters It
looks as If It was time to escape from
a sinking ship.
John F. Logan, a Portland attorney
well known in Oregon City and Clack
amas county has filed w ith the state
railroad commission a vigorous com
plaint against the Southern Pacific be
cause of Its Irregular and uncertain
passenger train service northward.
Mr. Logan bases his complaint on
actual experience of trying to catch
a train from an up-valley town to
Portland. He learned that there was
only one way of finding out when the
train would arrive and that was to
he at the station when it pulled In
anywhere from one U 20 hours late.
The northbound trains have not been
regular for several months. People
overlooked the miserable service dur
ing the California floods and wash
outs, but those ceased weeks ago, and
It Is about time the road lived up to
somewhere near Its schedule. If the
schedule Is too swift for the S. P., a
new one should be put in effect.
No one deserves more honor than
the old settlers who made the toil
some journey across the plains, and
transformed this wilderness Into a
garden. And It Is fitting the praises
should be given them while living,
and pot all reserved until thoy cross
that other great plain that lies be
tween here and the final home. The
Oregon City Woman's club, always
active In behalf of the community, has
the individual and sincere though un
443
expressed gratitude of each citizen
for voluntarily doing what everyone
is glad to see done so well and gra
ciously. The reception to the old
settlers Is the ''leading social event
of the season" In one respect at least
In the community-wide good will
that abounds In and surrounds it.
E. S. Bramhlll, the veteran saw
mill man of Sandy, Is the original Mt.
Hood railroad promoter. For many
years he advocated an electric road
to the majestic peak, and kept agita
ting the project, pointing out where
a power plant could be built and the
feasability of the route, until he fin
ally Interested C. W. Miller who has
succeeded In securing capital to fi
nance the project. Mr. Bramhall has
retired from business and now lives
in Portland. He Is naturally proud
that his pet dream Is in a fair way to
be realized and the route he marked
out long ago will be followed with a
few deviations.
The San Francisco grafters evident
ly appreciate the deep water into
which they find themselves, for two
of them have retained D. M. Delmas,
the lawyer who won considerable
fame In his defense of Harry K. Thaw,
to save them.
And now Illinois has joined the pro
cession of States that have passed
two-cent fare legislation. The bill has
been passed in both houses of the
State legislature and the law been
signed by Governor Deneen.
Kansas methods are nothing If not
novel. This time It Is purposed to
put a two-cent fare rate In force in
that state without legislation, on the
plea that what Is good In other states
Is good in Kansas.
President Roosevelt was in atten
dance at the funeral of Mrs. McKin
ley at Canton, Ohio, today. Tomor
row he will speak at the unveiling
of a statute to General Lawton, at
Indianapolis.
The rush for lands soon to be open
for settlement In this state shows no
evidence of decay in the interest of
agriculture in general, and land-holding
In particular.
A new city ordinance in Los Angeles
makes it an offense punishable by
fine and imprisonment for a landlord
In that city to refuse to rent a house
because the Inquirer has children.
